See DealNow Remington has gone a step forward-or you might say backward-by introducing the simplest in-line design to date. The Genesis firing system has only two moving parts, yet it solves all of the complications and drawbacks inherent to in-line muzzleloaders. As with many muzzleloaders, in the Genesis, an exposed hammer strikes a floating firing pin. On impact, the pin drives forward to strike a cap, in this case, a 209 shotgun primer. What’s unique to the Genesis is that the firing-pin assembly
...
is housed in a solid steel block that pivots out of the way with the flick of a finger. Once pivoted, the breech plug is exposed for capping, decapping or removal for thorough cleaning.
Flipping-breech designs were experimented with when cased cartridges were introduced. That application was limited to mild-pressure cartridges because of the rearward movement from the case during firing. With a muzzleloader, there’s no rearward movement or pressure except for some slight gas blowback through the touch hole, making a flipping breech ideal.Remington Genesis For Sale
